I did the Morning Offering and then got myself ready for the day. The Q’uo quote today comes from April 26, 2008:
The question this evening is, “Would you discuss the spiritual principles behind the creative process of the arts? From a spiritual perspective, what are some of the differences in the creative process between poets, novelists, sculptors, painters, composers, songwriters, actors and playwrights?
(Carla channeling)
We are those known to you as the principle of Q’uo. Greetings in the love and in the light of the one infinite Creator, in whose service we come to you this day. Thank you for calling us to your circle of seeking. It is a great privilege to be called. We shall do our best to share with you some of our thoughts upon this most interesting subject of the spiritual principles behind the creative process. As always, we ask each who reads or listens to this material to retain your keen sense of discrimination, so that you take that which is useful to you from this conversation and leave the rest behind. We would be most grateful for you to do that, as it allows us to speak freely without being concerned that we may infringe upon your free will or disturb your process.
Thespiritual principle behind the creative process is that each entity is the Creator. Each entity has the innate ability to create things that never were and to think thoughts that have never been thought. Each entity upon Planet Earth in third density is equipped with all of the tools and resources for creativity. You may ask, then, “Why does not everyone create?” The challenge of being creative is to retain or produce a way of seeing and perceiving that is original to the Creator. Your culture does not encourage original thought. Your culture does not encourage inner-directed behavior and attitudes. Your culture has a consensus reality which is endlessly materialistic. It is as though, with a sea all around you, your culture stands upon a tiny island and says, “This is the world. Do not go to the sea. Do not dive deep in unknown waters. Here in this garden where there is food to eat and work to do, live your life. Question nothing, accept authority, and make no waves. Do not paddle at the shores of the unknown.”
The culture and its consensus reality, in our point of view, is the illusion and the water, the reality. The creation of the small island is the pulling together of some gross physical matter upon which to stand and it is built by fear. At each instant of each of your lives upon planet Earth, infinity and eternity are as close to you as your breath; as near as your heartbeat. Each moment upon this seemingly solid earth and its seemingly mundane concerns can open up in an instant to reveal the stunning complexity, paradox, and mystery of the infinity of the moment. Land falls away and the waters invite, encourage and attract the seeking heart to escape the island of consensus reality and plunge into the waters of the noumenal, the unknown, and the wondrous. It is to be noted that the artistic impulse exists in some way, shape or form in each person. However, in some cases, the environment of childhood is such that there is too much fear built into knowing new things to make it possible for an entity to explore his creative impulse. In other cases, an entity may have great appreciation and delight in portions of the creative process and yet be unable, for lack of native talent, to manifest that wonderful artistic vision that is in his heart and in his soul.
There is a certain percentage of your peoples, many of them being wanderers, whose nature is such and whose pre-incarnative choices of talents are such as to support the creative process. Artists and creators of what this instrument would call “intellectual properties” are not a different breed than other human beings upon planet Earth. They are those whose gifts include a sensitivity to beauty which calls them away from the island and into the water. We use this metaphor because the difference between that which is non-magical and that which is magical, or that which is non-creative and that which is creative, is the flatness and the two-dimensionality, shall we say, of the earth at the feet, and the figure walking across the earth at a 90-degree angle to it at all times. There is no roundness. The life is shaped in squares. In the water, if the water separates out, every drop of water is a globe. It is a circular universe, appropriate to the circular energies of time/space and metaphysical things.
The group question for this session was: “The question this evening is, “Would you discuss the spiritual principles behind the creative process of the arts? From a spiritual perspective, what are some of the differences in the creative process between poets, novelists, sculptors, painters, composers, songwriters, actors and playwrights?” Q’uo began by saying the spiritual principle behind the creative process is that each of us is the Creator, and we have the ability to create things that never were and to think thoughts that have never been thought, and each entity of us on Earth in third density is equipped with resources for creativity, but the challenge of being creative is for us to produce a way of seeing that is original to the Creator, and our culture does not encourage original thought, but our culture has a consensus reality which is materialistic, and with a sea all around us our culture stands upon a tiny island and says: “This is the world. Do not go to the sea. Do not dive deep in unknown waters. Here in this garden where there is food to eat and work to do, live your life. Question nothing, accept authority, and make no waves. Do not paddle at the shores of the unknown.” Q’uo continued by saying our culture and its consensus reality is the illusion, and the creation of the small island is the pulling together of some physical matter upon which to stand, and it is built by fear so that at each instant of our lives upon Earth infinity is as close to us as our breath and as near as our heartbeat, and each moment upon Earth and its seemingly mundane concerns can open up in an instant to reveal the paradox and mystery of the infinity of the moment when land falls away, and the waters attract our seeking heart to escape the island of consensus reality and plunge into the waters of the unknown, and it is to be noted that the artistic impulse exists in some way in each of us, but the environment of childhood is such that there is too much fear built into knowing new things to make it possible for us to explore our creative impulse, so in other cases we may have delight in portions of the creative process, and yet be unable, to manifest that artistic vision that is in our heart and our soul. Q’uo went on to say there is a certain percentage of our people, many of them being wanderers, whose nature is such and whose pre-incarnative choices of talents are such as to support the creative process, and artists of what Carla would call “intellectual properties” are not a different breed than other human beings upon planet Earth because we are those whose gifts include a sensitivity to beauty which calls us away from the island and into the water, and Q’uo used this metaphor because the difference between that which is non-magical and that which is magical is the two-dimensionality of the Earth at the feet, and our figure walking across the Earth at a 90-degree angle to it at all times since there is no roundness, and our life is shaped in squares, but in water every drop of water is a globe, and it is a circular universe, appropriate to the circular energies of time/space and metaphysical things. On February 12, 2006, Q’uo spoke of that which is magical within us:
That which is magical within you awaits your choice. Let us look then at the nature of the choice before you and the resources with which you meet it. In each moment your choice is to accept yourself as the self that your culture and your environment suggest that you are, or to accept yourself as something far more articulated. It may seem grandiose to those who like the idea of being powerless and without responsibility in any ethical sense. To those who are thirsty for the one infinite Creator, it seems a positive blessing to be pulled forward by the desire to seek. Those who wish to become more than they know are those who would choose to become co-Creators with the forces placed into motion at the time of birth.
When you choose to accelerate the pace of your spiritual evolution, you are activating a magical portion of yourself. That is the nature of your choice. It is perfectly all right to choose to rest and refrain from the practice of the recognition of the power of your own being. When you have gathered your strength and wish to step forward upon your journey, you are indeed the fool. Whether or not you feel that you need baggage, you pick up your self, your energies, and your intentions, and you leave the familiar safe and sheltered valley of your past understanding.
We would switch to a different metaphor now in talking about the gateway to intelligent infinity, for the second part of your query, my brother, has to do with possible differences between various types of artists and creators. We would distinguish at the beginning of this conversation between artists and those entities who are moving from an intellectual perspective and are not involved in the artistic impulse but rather have found that the gifts produced by him are well accepted and can offer him a good living. We are talking about those with the spontaneous and irresistible urge to create. Those who are playing a role and seeing artistic production as a kind of career or work limit themselves by remaining within the lower chakras in their expression of material offered by them, or to them if they are singers or actors.
Wespeak, as we believe you intended us to speak, strictly of those artists who must express that which is within them and who are irresistibly drawn to perform and to share their gifts. Whether or not such entities would think of offering their gifts in a spiritual sense, it is, indeed, a spiritual exercise by its very definition. For in order to make contact with the creative impulse, the entity must move into the open heart, or green-ray chakra, and thereby move upwards into the ray of communication, the blue ray, and the ray of faith, indigo ray, and thenceforth to move into the violet ray and the gateway to intelligent infinity. An artist is moving his attention into a place where he is able to draw from beyond that gateway the inspiration and information needed in order to be able to express the visions that he has seen and the perceptions he has garnered in his own way. He is as the treasure hunter who finds treasure and then must share it.
This instrument is fond of a musician known as Willie. This singer and songwriter was once asked how he created so many beautiful melodies. The one known as Willie said, “There are melodies moving through the air at all times. It is just a matter of picking one out of the air and putting words to it.” This entity was accurate. The infinity of possibilities flows through that gateway to those who access it at all times. There is no end to the creative impulse. We would note that the great and universal difficulty which artistic entities face is that they become overly fond of remaining in the chakras we have just mentioned—the heart chakra, the throat chakra, the brow chakra, and the gateway chakra. They prefer to remain completely in the upper chakras and not to take care of or honor the lower chakras. Therefore, they become untethered to the earth, shall we say. They are not grounded into their lives and their incarnations.
Then Q’uo said they would switch to a different metaphor now in talking about the gateway to intelligent infinity, for the second part of our query has to do with differences between various types of artists, and they would distinguish between artists and those of us who are moving from an intellectual perspective and are not involved in the artistic impulse, but have found that the gifts produced by us are accepted and can offer us a good living, but Q’uo was talking about those of us with the irresistible urge to create because we are seeing artistic production as a career, but we limit ourselves by remaining within the lower chakras in our expression of material offered to us if we are singers or actors. Q’uo went on to say they speak of those artists who express that which is within us, and we are drawn to share our gifts, and whether or not we would think of offering our gifts in a spiritual sense, it is a spiritual exercise by its definition, for in order to make contact with the creative impulse we must move into our open heart and move upwards into the blue ray of communication, then the indigo ray of faith, then move into the violet ray and the gateway to intelligent infinity, so as an artist we are moving our attention into a place where we are able to draw from beyond that gateway the information needed in order to be able to express the visions that we have seen and the perceptions we have gained in our way, so we are as the treasure hunter who finds treasure and then must share it. Now Q’uo said Carla is fond of a musician known as Willie, and he was once asked how he created so many beautiful melodies, and he said: “There are melodies moving through the air at all times. It is just a matter of picking one out of the air and putting words to it.” Q’uo said he was accurate because the infinity of possibilities flows through that gateway to those of us who access it at all times, and there is no end to the creative impulse, but the universal difficulty which artistic entities face is that we become overly fond of remaining in the heart chakra, the throat chakra, the brow chakra, and the gateway chakra, and because we prefer to remain in the upper chakras and not to honor the lower chakras, we become untethered to the Earth, and we are not grounded into our incarnations. On September 5, 2010, Carla spoke of our access to the gateway to intelligent infinity:
We are in the incredibly wonderful position of being a little place to anchor into this earthly vibration the infinite Love of the one Creator. We have a gateway to intelligent infinity within us. It is when your heart is open, and you have opened your upper chakras and then you ask. You set an intention. You say, “I want help.” And that wonderful panoply of helpers above—the angels, the Confederation, your higher self, all the forces of nature—spring into action all around you and help pours in through that gateway and goes where it is needed.
The energy called down from the gateway to intelligent infinity always comes down into the heart chakra first. Then, if you’re a teacher, a channel using communication, a writer, a poet, and so forth, you bounce back up the blue-ray chakra. And you express through that chakra that which you have been able to draw down through the gateway.
For those who heal, the energy comes down from intelligent infinity, down through violet ray, indigo ray, blue ray, down into the green ray and then the energy drawn down stays in green ray, so that you become an instrument of that which is flowing through you. You don’t try to heal. You try to be a good instrument. And you might be putting your touch on people. It might be the Christian Science way of a practitioner knowing the truth for another person and allowing that to be and creating the opportunity for that person to accept that. There are many ways to heal in terms of spiritual healing from the gateway, but they all involve the healer giving up his will and saying, “Use me please.”
This is the temptation for those who love beautiful things, not realizing that beauty begins with the stench of birth, the blood, the wailing, the sharp light, and the terror. The creative process must move down, daily and consciously, into those very beginnings of life, into red ray with its survival and sexuality, into orange ray and yellow ray with its relationships, and work with the entire energy body in order to have the strength and the sheer energy flowing through the energy body in order to make the most of the spiritual gifts of creativity while not destroying the body, the emotions, or the mind, quickly or gradually, because of inattention to the lower chakras and their issues and concerns. Various artists have chosen before incarnation to bring with them into life various creative gifts. One may sing. Another may be a wonderful actor. One may write. Another may paint. The differences between the different kinds of artistry have to do with the personality or character of the individual who is striving to express artistic feelings and concepts.
Some there are who like to remain within the heart and are expressing from the heart. These, in many cases, are performers. Those who create music, shall we say, or create operas or ballets, move from the heart chakra. Others there are who have the pronounced blue ray. Those with this particular character will find it irresistible to attempt to communicate in new ways and many of these are writers, playwrights, poets, and inspired teachers, for teaching is, in itself, an art form. Many there are whose character and personality are such that they are drawn to the realms of faith, will and magic. A mixture of these energies is unique to each artist and therefore the mode or manifestation of that art within him will also be unique. Certainly too, an artist may move in his life through various phases in which he is coming from the heart or the desire to communicate or from the desire to express the magic of life. But these are the waters in which the artist plays.
Q’uo went on to say this is the temptation for those of us who love beautiful things, not realizing that beauty begins with the stench of birth, the blood, the wailing, the sharp light, and the terror, so the creative process must move down, daily and consciously, into those beginnings of our life, into red ray with its survival and sexuality, into orange ray and yellow ray with its relationships, and work with the energy body in order to have the energy flowing through our energy body in order to make the most of the spiritual gifts of creativity while not destroying our body, our emotions, or our mind because of inattention to the lower chakras and their issues, and various artists have chosen before incarnation to bring with them into life various creative gifts, so that one may sing, or may be a wonderful actor, or one may write, and the differences between the different kinds of artistry have to do with our personality as we are striving to express artistic concepts. Q’uo completed their reply by saying some of us like to remain within our heart, and we are often performers, and those of us who create music, or create operas or ballets, move from our heart chakra, but others there are those of us who have the activated blue ray, and those of us with this character will find it irresistible to attempt to communicate in new ways and many of these are writers, poets, and inspired teachers, for teaching is an art form, and many there are of us whose personality is such that we are drawn to the realms of faith, will, and magic, so a mixture of these energies is unique to each artist, and the manifestation of that art within us will also be unique, but as an artist we may move in our life through various phases in which we are coming from our heart with the desire to communicate or from the desire to express the magic of life, but these are the waters in which we play as the artist. On October 15, 1995, Q’uo spoke of the magic of life:
Remember as you touch each other’s lives, and as you go forth and continue this process, that the magic of life is much more obvious when each finds the groups or the new people that have a commonality of attitude and interest in the metaphysical. Be able to reach out in faith to those who are new in your relationships, for this is truly a path in which companions are the most help and the least difficulty.
We ask if there is another query, my brother? We are those of Q’uo.
Jim: Are numbers, ratios and arbitrary rates a helpful spiritual lens for understanding the creative process and the creative product?
We are those of Q’uo, and are aware of your query, my brother. Indeed, mathematics and ratios are intrinsic and absolutely necessary to the creative process, and if an artist is having difficulty focusing, it may be very helpful for such an entity to work with mathematics, especially sacred geometry. If one looks at language itself, it is sacred geometry. Each letter in a word has a certain energy. Each word, made up of certain letters, has a certain energy. The study of not just language but alphabets and symbols is endlessly fascinating, and it can be seen that through the doorway of letters and words an infinite amount of energy may flow. Such tools are necessary for the artist. In music as well, it may easily be seen that there is a series of mathematical ratios betwixt the twelve tones of the western scale. There are mathematical ratios betwixt various chords, duads, and triads within that system of octaves which musicians use to create the beauty of a melody and the richness of harmonization and symphony.
Maywe ask if there is another query, my brother?
Jim: In order to bring us full-circle, would you discuss the spiritual principles behind the attraction of art, literature, and theater for non-artists and the population in general from a spiritual perspective, being sensitive to how different types of art may uniquely tweak the creative process? How does art affect us?“
We are those of Q’uo, and are aware of your query, my brother. As we said previously, all entities are creators, but not all entities are drawn to express their creativity. They are solidly attached to their little island of consensus reality. They want the ground firm beneath them and the sky above. They wish their feet not to sink into the unknown. And yet, that creative impulse dwells within all. It is part of being part of the Creator. Each entity is a sub-Creator. Each entity has magical ability. Each entity through faith and will can change his world. But there is such a deep acceptance of consensus reality in many that there is no potential outlet for creative expression in the sense of original creativity, although you may see the creative impulse moving through any entity’s life in a collection of Barbie Dolls arranged just so, or a beautifully decorated Christmas tree, or meals that are prepared with love, or children that are raised with genius.
Then Jim asked: “Would you discuss the spiritual principles behind the attraction of art, literature, and theater for non-artists and the population in general from a spiritual perspective, being sensitive to how different types of art may uniquely tweak the creative process? How does art affect us?“ Q’uo began their response by saying all of us are creators, but not all of us are drawn to express our creativity because we are attached to our island of consensus reality, and we want firm ground beneath us and the sky above, and that creative impulse dwells within all of us because it is part of being part of the Creator, and each of us has magical ability and through faith and will we can change our world, but there is such a deep acceptance of consensus reality in many of us that there is no potential outlet for creative expression in the sense of original creativity, although we may see the creative impulse moving through our life in a beautifully decorated Christmas tree, or meals that are prepared with love, or children that are raised with genius. Q’uo went on to say many of us will not enter into intellectual creations, and we will not let go of the box in which our lives are bound, for we feel safe there, yet how wonderful it is for us to be able to step into a theater or an opera house and to sit in the audience and let the performers take us into the water because we aren’t steering the boat, but we can appreciate the trip and know that this dose of mystery and paradox will end, and we will be back safely upon the shores of our island once again, so it can be thought of as a left brain/right brain difference, where the left brain has to do with living on the island and making good use of time within the box, and the right brain goes begging and does not have its needs fulfilled since it is not exercised and lies dormant, but art can take us out upon the water and lift that dormancy into activity, and suddenly the right brain is working and feels good, and it makes us feel as though we are creative because it is contagious. On September 11, 2005, Q’uo mentioned the value of art:
There is a tremendous relief in escaping into the color and tone of music, storytelling or the more stringent disciplines of non-spoken art, where only color, shape and texture can be used to catch those shadows of substantial truth that are unseen within your density.
May we answer you further, my brother?
Jim: Finally, from a spiritual perspective, what is the significance of the rise in interest in creativity in almost every cultural domain?
We are those of Q’uo, and are aware of your query, my brother. Perhaps you have heard the expression, “There is something in the air.” “Spring is in the air.” “Christmas is in the air.” At this time, my brother the New Age is in the air. The veil rends. The gateway to intelligent infinity is more easily entered. Vibrations of truth are bombarding planet Earth at this time. Waves and waves of clarity and true perception are interpenetrating with the third-density vibration of consensus reality in a way that cannot be ignored. If an entity is deeply asleep, he may simply feel these waves of energy as experiencing that things are getting more difficult, and he must shut down more and more and focus on just surviving. This is due to the fact that he has not yet welcomed himself, gotten to know himself, come to accept himself, and finally seen the Creator within himself. However, every entity upon planet Earth today is capable of breaking through to a standpoint from which these energies are used in a positive way.
It takes tremendous courage to open up to these crashing waves of perception and say, “I’m in for the ride. I will use this energy to see more deeply into myself, to accept myself more fully, to love myself more dearly, to see the Creator within me, and honor that spark of Godhead.”
These are wondrous times. For your people approach graduation day, shall we say, that point after which each death from life on planet Earth shall be entirely open to the possibility of moving forward into fourth density. And not only is the planet and the solar system as a whole receiving these incredible waves of energy signaling the end of third density and the beginning of the dawning of a new age of fourth density, but also at this time there is tremendous interest in helping those of planet Earth who wish to move forward in a service-to-others manner to succeed. So the inner planes are rich with those who come to experience this time of shift with the incarnate entities of planet Earth. Angelic entities are everywhere. Nature devas and nature spirits are everywhere, all wanting to play, to sing, to dance with you, with each, with all, inviting each to dance this dance into the sun, into the light, into the dawning of the new day.
We, ourselves, are among those who have been drawn to your planet at this time so that we may in our humble and modest way offer ourselves to those who might find our information useful or helpful. You may expect to see more and more of the artistic impulse within the children of your planet as they are born within the very specific confines of entities who shall live a part of their lives in fourth density. They are wired for both third density and fourth density within their DNA. Consequently, they can accept far more creative information. For them the veil is much thinner.
Now Jim asked: “Finally, from a spiritual perspective, what is the significance of the rise in interest in creativity in almost every cultural domain?” Q’uo began by saying perhaps you have heard the expression “Spring is in the air,” and at this time the New Age is in the air as the veil thins, and the gateway to intelligent infinity is more easily entered, and vibrations of truth are bombarding planet Earth at this time, and waves of true perception are interpenetrating with the third-density vibration of consensus reality in a way that cannot be ignored, so if we are asleep, we may feel these waves of energy as our experiencing that things are getting more difficult, and we must shut down more and focus on just surviving, so this is due to the fact that we have not come to accept ourself, and to see the Creator within ourself but every entity upon planet Earth today is capable of breaking through to a standpoint from which these energies are used in a positive way, but it takes courage to open up to these crashing waves of perception and say: “I’m in for the ride. I will use this energy to see more deeply into myself, to accept myself more fully, to love myself more dearly, to see the Creator within me, and honor that spark of Godhead.” Q’uo went on to say these are wondrous times, for our people approach graduation day, that point after which each death from life on planet Earth shall be entirely open to the possibility of moving forward into fourth density, and not only is the planet and the solar system as a whole receiving these incredible waves of energy signaling the end of third density and the beginning of the dawning of a new age of fourth density, but also at this time there is interest in helping those of us on planet Earth who wish to move forward in a service-to-others manner to succeed: “so the inner planes are rich with those who come to experience this time of shift with the incarnate entities of planet Earth, and angelic entities are everywhere, and nature devas and nature spirits are everywhere, all wanting to play, to sing, to dance with you, with each, with all, inviting each to dance this dance into the sun, into the light, into the dawning of the new day.” Now Q’uo said we are among those who have been drawn to your planet at this time so that we can offer ourselves to those who might find our information helpful, and you may expect to see more of the artistic impulse within the children of your planet as they are born within the specific confines of entities who shall live a part of their lives in fourth density because they are wired for both third density and fourth density within their DNA, so they can accept more creative information, for them the veil is much thinner. On September 7, 2007, Q’uo spoke of the entities that are wired for both third and fourth density work:
The one known as D has moved gradually into more and more of the desire to engage with the planet directly. And may we say, my brother, that you are absolutely on course in your spiritual seeking as you respond to your heart’s call to become ever closer to the energies of Gaia and all of the spirit-filled energies of second-density plants, animals and first-density air, fire, water and earth.
The overarching principle here is that all is one. However, there is a particular reason that you have chosen at this time to move into a closer relationship with the Earth itself, and it has to do not only with your incarnational lessons and service, but also with the one known as N’s and to a certain extent the one known as M as well.
The Indigo agenda generally has a large area of concern for the planet itself. This is due to the fact that these entities are natives of this planet, having just graduated from third-density Earth. They have graduated to fourth-density positive and have immediately chosen to return to the Earth sphere in a dual-activated third and fourth-density body. Their physical body is third density, but they’re wired, shall we say, to be able to absorb fourth-density vibrations of love and understanding in a far less distorted way than those with only the third-density wiring or DNA.
They, and all of those who have come to this planet from elsewhere, from planets that have destroyed their habitat or who come from Atlantis, where they destroyed their habitat, have a great desire to offer to the Earth restitution and stewardship that is based on love and protection rather than on the desire to rape the Earth for its resources.
At this time we would ask if there are any follow-up queries to this initial series of questions? Is there another query from the one known as A? We are the ones known as Q’uo.
A: Yes, Q’uo. Would you discuss the relationship between empathy and the creative process?
We are aware of your query, my brother. There is a profound difference between empathy or the ability to feel fellow-feeling for another entity and the individual creative process. You might see it as the difference between a horizontal action and a vertical action. When an entity is so open-hearted that he is able to put himself into another’s shoes and to walk a mile in his shoes, he has indeed performed a creative act. He has accepted his brother as himself. He has taken on his burdens. He has experienced that which he could never experience within his own individual life. This indicates a magical and loving personality with a spiritual maturity that is unique to those who have awakened and who have become able to be magical people. Yet that exchange of energy in empathy is horizontal. It is from person to person. Each of the two offers the dynamic of the Creator between them.
[Side one of tape ends.]
(Carla channeling)
However, the Creator is not something for which the empathic person is reaching. Empathy is person-to-person, eye-to-eye, and heart-to-heart. In the creative process of an artist who is working with his imagination, there is a vertical energy where the artist is opening to higher energies, higher perceptions, and transformative and magical nuances that he senses and then goes hunting for, just as we said, like a treasure hunt. This is a vertical energy. It is that which moves one very decisively out of the box of consensus reality and into that awareness that the ground upon which you stand is merely an illusion and that in truth, there is infinity below and infinity above and eternity on both sides.
A asked: “Would you discuss the relationship between empathy and the creative process?” Q’uo replied by saying there is a difference between empathy and the individual creative process, and it is the difference between a horizontal action and a vertical action because when an entity is so open-hearted that he is able walk a mile in another’s shoes, he has accepted his brother as himself; he has taken on his burdens; and he has experienced that which he could never experience within his own life, and this indicates a loving personality with a spiritual maturity that is unique to those who have awakened and who have become able to be magical people, yet that exchange of energy in empathy is horizontal, from person to person, and each of the two offers the dynamic of the Creator between them. Then Q’uo said the Creator is not something for which the empathic person is reaching since empathy is heart-to-heart and person-to-person, and in the creative process of an artist who is working with his imagination, there is a vertical energy where the artist is opening to transformative and magical nuances that he senses and then goes hunting for like a treasure hunt, and this is a vertical energy which moves one very decisively out of the box of consensus reality and into that awareness that the ground upon which you stand is an illusion and that in truth, there is infinity below and infinity above and infinity on both sides. On September 28, 2019, Q’uo described the quality of empathy and what it means to us.
As you know, the purpose of this experience which each of you shares upon your Planet Earth is to begin to open your heart energy center in unconditional Love for all those about you, for this is a choice which is available within your third-density illusion that can become transformative. For each seeker of truth that earnestly desires to begin this opening process, it is the desire and its strength that begins to prepare each seeking soul for this transformation, that which you call empathy, or the ability to feel what another person feels clearly and profoundly within your own being. This is the beginning of the opening of the green ray or heart energy center. The empathy that is becoming a stepping stone, shall we say, to the open heart is the product of the times in which you live, the frequency of vibrations of your very planetary sphere that is finding itself engulfed in more and more streamings from the cosmic sources beyond your planet that signal the transition period of your planet in its population into a higher vibration.
May we answer you further, my brother? We are those of Q’uo.
A: Yes, Q’uo, you mentioned that [inaudible]
We are those of Q’uo, and are aware of your query, my brother. An artist’s sense of esthetics is as unique as his personality. An artist tends to create from perceptions that make something new of the familiar and take that which is known into places where it becomes something unknown. This instrument, to give one example, has recently seen the work of an artist who takes everyday objects such as plastic water bottles and creates photographs that have a surface beauty to them but which also have the deepest expression of concern for planet Earth. “Look at all these water bottles,” the artist says with his photo. “Look at this sea of water bottles that we, as a nation, have used and discarded in just one day.” A vast sea of transparent bottles fills the picture frame to frame, and beneath the undulating waves of crystalline beauty there lies the message.
To move further back for another example, in a time of horror and war, the one known as Brueghel painted what he saw and to this day entities are able to look at that painting and have an immediate insight into the nature of human suffering. It is not that dark things, in and of themselves, are beautiful, any more than it is that positive or light things are in and of themselves beautiful. It is the perception that the flat postcard of vision can explode into an infinity of concepts that drives beauty.
May we answer you further, my brother?
A: [Inaudible]
We are those of Q’uo, and are aware of your query, my brother. We believe you are already aware that this is part of your active, personal process at this time. We would not wish to do your work for you. For there is great joy and discovery awaiting you as you move through your process on your own. We can only say to you that your efforts are positive and loving, and we wish you every good fortune with them.
Is there a final query at this time? We are those of Q’uo.
R: In looking at the nature of negative polarity and karma, there is the assumption that when one polarizes in the negative sense, for example, as a slave master, then the karma would draw to him the opposite experience of being the slave. When you are in the position of one who suffers and is on the receiving end, will you still polarize in a negative way?“ Could you comment on this question?
We are those of Q’uo, and are aware of your query, my brother. It is entirely possible and quite probable that an entity, as you say, on the receiving end of power; that is, being powerless, can polarize very greatly towards the negative. If you think about the nature of the negative polarity, the negative polarity has to do with seeing all others as objects to be used and to feeling of oneself that one is the king of creation. When such an entity, with this basic turn of mind, is in a position of powerlessness, he is free to spend the entire incarnation honing the edge of his rage. He can use every slight, every insult, in order to make himself more finely sharp as an axe-blade in his distain and distaste for all but himself.
And talking of negative polarity metaphysically speaking, you are not looking so much at the outer estate as you are looking at the possibilities of employing the path-that-is-not. Employing the path-that-is-not means denying that you and the other are one. Whether a negatively polarized entity is on top or on the bottom in terms of the estate he enjoys in society, he is equally capable of honing the edge of his anger and his separation from all others.
We are those of Q’uo, and are aware that the energy of this instrument is waning. We would at this time, therefore, with great reluctance say, as did Romeo, “Parting is such sweet sorrow.” We leave you, as we found you, in the love and in the light of the one infinite Creator. Adonai. Adonai.
This morning I ran some errands with my first stop being at AutoZone to buy some 50:1 2-cycle engine oil. Then I stopped at Speedway to fill my 5-gal. gas can with regular gasoline for my lawnmower, Venus. My third stop was at Walgreen’s Drug Store where I bought some Tylenol and picked up a prescription of Atorvastatin. My last stop was at Theinemman’s Nursery to buy five different kind of sun-loving flowers that included Lantana, but the other flowers didn’t have names on their tags. When I got home I put the flowers on the Ruins Mound to plant later. Then I used my trimmer to trim the weeds in the Moss Garden in the back yard. Then I used my backpack blower to blow the weed trimmings into the grass across Little Locust Creek.
This afternoon I went outside and transplanted three of the flowers that I bought this morning on the southeast corner of the Ruins Mound. One was Lantana, one was Hot Pink Salvia, and the other one didn’t have a name tag. Then I watered them with fertilized water and sprayed them with deer repellant.
From A Book of Days, channeled by Carla L. Rueckert:
April 28
Praise And Thanksgiving In Your Heart
I am of the spirit of Jesus the Christ, and I greet you in the full consciousness of Love.
Take this moment to become more and more in touch with that feeling of praise and thanksgiving that is in your heart this day. The trees praise the Lord. The hills and valleys rejoice. And the burgeoning flowers move through the earth to the sun in bursts of pleasure and chanting of happiness to the winds.
It may seem that there are obstacles to your joy and that the world is not one which you would praise. Yet gaze you at your own hands and at the mind of the Father which created such tools.
Gaze at the incessantly changing colors of your thoughts and behold the beauty of the creation of the Father.
Look at those who have served you and those whom you have served, those who have displeased you and those whom you have displeased, and praise the Father Who gives you freedom to make your own decisions about His creation; Who urges you to pick and choose, to think and select and grow.
The more your heart may stand in the light of faith, praising and giving thanksgiving, the more yet again shall the Spirit find this opportunity to be granted unto you in happy harvest.
The first word of praise in any day is an act of blind faith and brings the heart into peaceful concert with the harmonious plan of the Father.
May you choose to dwell in that peace, now and forever. Amen
I said the prayer at the Gaia Meditation tonight:
We come in the name of love and open our hearts, minds, and souls to send love, light, and healing energy to Mother Earth as she brings forth a new Earth in the fourth density. We ask that the infinite love, light, and healing energy of the One Infinite Creator heal the hearts of all souls in pain on Earth tonight. May all souls on Earth feel our love, light, and healing energy in their hearts, their minds, and their souls. Amen.
